SODIUM C12-13 PARETH-2 PHOSPHATE.

Insufficient Data / CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING

Sodium C12-13 Pareth-2 Phosphate is an alkyl phosphate-based cleansing agent and surfactant. It effectively reduces surface tension, enabling the emulsification of oil and water to facilitate the removal of impurities from the skin.

Cleansing Agent Surfactant

Science

As an alkyl phosphate, this ingredient operates by significantly lowering the surface tension of aqueous solutions. This action allows immiscible oil and water phases to combine, thereby enhancing the dissolution and removal of dirt and sebum from the skin's surface.
